Summer Learning Journey Week 2:Day 1

For this activity, please write a letter that includes the issue you have chosen, why you have chosen it, and what you would like our Prime Minister, Jacinda Ardern, to do about it. It is your job to persuade us (and her!) that it’s an important issue.

On your blog, share your letter to Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern.

Hey Jacinda Adern,

Hope you are having a great day. It is getting really hot and that is a big issue around Auckland. I think that you should make the pools free because very hot and it is nearly Christmas so that could be an early Christmas present for people in Auckland! Merry Christmas!
